Dear Colleagues,

 

The New Members Round Table (NMRT) Mentoring Committee is pleased to
announce that they are accepting applications for their Conference
Mentoring Program for the ALA Annual Conference in June!

 

Attending your first ALA Conference?

 

Overwhelmed by all the programs and events available at Annual?

 

Sign up for a Conference Mentor today!

 

The Conference Mentoring Program is open to all ALA members and is
designed to connect a first time conference attendee with a 'seasoned
professional' who can help them navigate the ALA Annual Conference.

 

If you are on your way to becoming a librarian, or are new to the
profession, this program is for you!

 

Interested in having a Conference Mentor?  For the guidelines and an
online application form please visit

renceMentorApp.cfm> 

 

The application deadline is May 15, 2010 for first consideration.

 

Applicants will be matched with a Conference Mentor in June and
communicate via email or telephone prior to the conference and then meet
during the conference.

 

If you have questions, please contact the NMRT Mentoring Committee at
nmrt_mentoring at yahoo.com Please feel free to share this invitation with
your colleagues.

 

Please note that this mentoring program is not structured to provide
career guidance, it is focused on issues related to the ALA Annual
Conference.  NMRT also offers a Career Mentoring program that will begin
taking applications at the end of the summer.  Please watch your email
for an announcement regarding Career Mentoring later this year.
